Hi all... I know I've asked previously but no one seemed to want to help, I'm in the middle of a total rebuild of a '89 110... I'm basically building it for overland travel, so will have extra weight on board but obviously it won't be laden all the time. Tyres wise I've got a set of brand new...

Well.. had a good day, weather wasn't too bad, sold a load of stuff and bought a few bits too, all in all made a tidy profit :)

;) hey aint complaining!

Great little setup you got there ReadySalted. I did the same thing with my 110 using a bit of ply I found in the garage, just plonked it across the rear wheel arches. Good to see it works for you, I love the K.I.S.S aproach to things :)

lol some interesting opinions on this post... I do use britpart stuff but not for mechanical items such as uj's or water pumps etc... nuts bolts the odd bush and bits that don't really matter yeah of course cos its cheap! But you get what you pay for dont ya! :)

Hi all! Anyone going to Newbury this Sunday? I'll be there selling lots and lots and lots of bits and pieces... pop by and say hello, I'll be hiding behind a blue D2 and a grey (sorry) Jeep Cherokee :eek::p:p:p:rofl: :cool:

Good call fanatic - sold it on ebay... £335! :)

Hi all... For sale is my freshly removed (from my '89 110) 19j lump. Its a sweet engine and runs like a sewing machine but I wanted a little more grunt so it has been removed in favor of a 200tdi instead. As such the 19j is now for sale. The engine has about 150,000 miles on it and a full...

Great build Tonks! Looks like it's gonna be one hell of a vehicle when it's finished :)

Plasti dip is expensive and peels off instead of scratching, I dont think I'd paint a whole vehicle with it. My brother sprayed the wheels on his VW van with plasti dip from rattle cans, looked good and pretty durable (until his misses curbed them) its nearly £20 a tin tho

Hi all... So heres the thing, my '89 110 will need its transfer box rebuilding as it seems to have lost low range :eek: This isn't too much of a problem as I wanted to have both the boxes rebuilt anyway. My question is, is it worth me looking at other options for transfer boxes? The old 19j...

-Defender110- Your build is great! Thanks for sharing it. Surprisingly, it's very similar to what I'm currently doing to mine - even down to the folding rear bulkhead! I guess great minds think alike ;)

Thanks for the advice chaps, I'll make some enquiries :)

Hi all, I'm looking at having my td5 re-mapped but don't fancy a 600+ mile round trip to Alive. Any suggestions for us Southern fairies? :)

Mine does this when the tank is less than half full, sometimes I have to let it sit in position II on the ignition for a few mins as it won't start otherwise. I heard of a fault with the fuel pick up within the fuel tank where it draws air through a perished pipe or something. If I keep a full...

lol just read Boris's post... that's who I bought mine from :cool:

I'm fitting gullwings to my 110 as we speak, google: 'horsebox locker doors' I found a company that makes them to size.. worked out half the price of the name branded items :tea:

A friend of mine had his honeymoon in Iceland, they hired a Nissan Pathfinder to explore the wilderness :)

Hi all.... As above! been ripped off and messed about by some tw@ who took my money and ran :mad2: Anyways, mine is the dark metallic blue with spot lights, not too bothered about the colour as I'm happy to paint it. I know they're getting rare now as they are easily broken but thought I'd...

Do a google search for "Horse box locker doors" Thats what I'm using at the moment to replace the sliding windows on my 110 - worked out less than half the price of the name branded ones! ;)
